On Tuesday night CBS aired the prestigious annual Kennedy Center Honors Gala Dinner from Washington, DC. After seeing Anne Hathaway wow in a Giambattista Valli on the red carpet on December 3rd, we finally got to the look she wore for her performance during the gala!

Anne took to the stage in a beautiful white and black tulle cap-sleeve lace embroidered gown with grosgrain belt from the Spring/Summer 2012 collection by Oscar de la Renta.

I love this on Anne! I know she just left her hair the way it was done for the red carpet, I can’t help but wish it had been styled in beautiful pin curls with this gown. | continue reading..

Nikki Reed joined her “Twilight” co-stars Jackson Rathbone, Ashley Greene, and Charlie Bewley last month during the nationwide concert tour featuring artists from “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1″ soundtrack. For the first stop on November 7th in Atlanta — Nikki played with prints and lengths when it came to her event outfit.

The 23-year-old actress wore a fun rust-colored flannel lantern skirt from Topshop with faux leather trimming at the waist and slanted patch pockets. Unfortunately, I wasn’t the biggest fan of the pairing between the skirt and her ivory and black sleeveless printed “Chanteuse” blouse by Kelly Wearstler. | continue reading..

Lady Gaga Travels Home on Christmas Eve in CHANEL!

Lady Gaga spent the holidays back home in New York with her family, but Christmas Eve found Mother Monster traveling out of Japan!

Gaga was spotted departing at the Narita International Airport wearing a black and white silk cape that was originally seen over a one-piece bathing suit during the swimwear portion of the Resort 2012 Cruise Antibes collection by Chanel.

Leave it up to Gaga to wear this while traveling and pairing it with only opaque tights, leather gloves, and fastening it closed with a thick black leather belt.

Compared to her other looks this is relatively tame, but I wouldn’t suggest anyone else trying this at home. I can appreciate her crazy looks, but I will never understand why it’s so taboo for her to wear a bra. Pick those girls up; your body will benefit from it and your clothes will fit better.

Her travel ensemble was complete with black eye cat sunglasses, red lips, and her favorite incredibly high platform Noritaka Tatehana boots. I kind of like the blunt bang and top knot hairstyle she’s got going on — and those large pearl earrings.

During the epic promotional film tour that was “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1″, Ashley Greene made a stop at “The Today Show” for a joint interview with her co-stars Jackson Rathbone and Nikki Reed on November 16th.

Ashley arrived to NBC Studios in a very color-coordinated ensemble; a gorgeous cropped textured violet jacket from L’Wren Scott‘s Fall/Winter 2011 collection that she layered over a silky periwinkle “Tholder Fatavia” high-low top by Theyskens’ Theory. | continue reading..

Florence Welch in Chanel | Opening of Harrods Winter Sale

Earlier today Florence + the Machine performed at the opening of the Winter Sale at Harrods in London. Front-woman Florence Welch kept warm in head-to-toe Fall/Winter 2011 collection look by Chanel.

The look consisted of a smokey grey silk dress and a black sheer overlay with a black grosgrain ribbon banding over the bust. Additionally she wore black lace long arm gloves to get the same effect as on the model before draping on the intense knit floor-length cape. On the model the ruffled neckline is open, but it appears that Florence kept it tightly closed. She also opted for the black velvet pumps in favor of lace-up boots.

I’ve always thought of this ensemble as something that would be right up Flo’s alley. It took her a long time to get here, but I’m excited that she finally wore it. | continue reading..

Paula Patton in Dolce & Gabbana | “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon”

Paula Patton took a peek into the Dolce&Gabbana archives for her appearance on “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon” on Wednesday, December 21st.

Paula showed off her toned figured in a totally shortened black version of this sheer ruched dress with mesh insets that was seen on the catwalk for Dolce&Gabbana‘s Spring/Summer 2007 collection. I love when the stars wear older looks that never really got a chance to shine on the red carpet.

It was certainly revealing around the bust, but it looked and fit great on Paula. I’m glad she didn’t wear chunky sandals or boots; Paula opted for sleek leopard printed point toe pumps. | continue reading..

Paula Patton had a great time playing with color when she arrived for a morning interview on NBC’s “Today” show on December 21st. The “Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol” actress wore a navy blue lace longsleeve dress with off-white underlining by Temperley London.

She arrived wearing a black winter coat, but during ther interview with Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb she layered on a dark blue velvet Dolce&Gabbana blazer. This is the same jacket she wore for the Seoul press conference earlier this month.

Paula finished off her look with another burst of color — red satin Giuseppe Zanotti platform open-toe pumps!

I like the pieces individually, but the look as whole is a bit too Fourth of July for me.

On November 18th, while her “Twilight” co-stars Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner were in Berlin promoting “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1″, Elizabeth Reaser was premiering it in Norway!

Elizabeth, who plays the vampire mom of the Cullen coven in the mega film franchise, showed off a little leg in a super-short cashmere Burberry Prorsum tunic at the Oslo red carpet premiere.

I was obsessed with her look when I originally saw it on the catwalk, for the Fall/Winter 2011 collection, in a mustard color and paired with brown flared skinny pants. Elizabeth opted for a rusty orange shade of the longsleeve tunic and went sans pants for sheer tights! | continue reading..

Nicole Scherzinger, one of “The X-Factor” performance judges, was on-hand to announce the winner at the season finale on Thursday. This was the first season of the show on FOX; it’s already a popular reality singing competition in the UK.

Nicole went for the “glam factor” when she hit the red carpet at CBS Television City in this smoke grey and silver fully beaded tulle gown from the Fall/Winter 2011 collection by Pamella Roland.

I thought this looked amazing on Nicole; and while it didn’t hurt the look, I wish the neckline wasn’t so covered up by her pretty Hawaiian necklace. | continue reading..

“New Girl” star Zooey Deschanel hit the red carpet at CBS Television City on Thursday, December 22nd for the first season finale of FOX’s “The X-Factor”; the US version of the popular UK reality singing competition.

Zooey wore a pretty off-white silk tank dress with a single tier scalloped skirt from the Resort 2012 collection by Erin Fetherston.

The dress was adorable, and perfect for Zooey’s fun style. I would have loved to have seen some festive metallic or colorful footwear going on, but Zooey selected black suede closed-toe platform pumps. She kept her legs warm in nude stockings! | continue reading..
